Pelicans wingspan reach just over six feet and are often seen soaring about 100 feet above the water looking for fish. When they spot their prey, they turn into a shooting arrow with their sharp bill aimed straight for the water. At high speed, they smack into the surface of the sea and scoop up their prey. Pelicans can easily fly over 100 miles a day for food because of a fibrous layer deep in the breast muscles that holds the wings rigid allowing them to catch thermals and soar up to altitudes of 10,000 ft. or skim along the surface inches above the water.

FUN FACT: pelicans have 3 stomachs to help with digestion of all parts of the fish including its fins and spine.

ABOUT the FINE ART GICLEE: Produced from my original artwork and they are printed on high-quality archival canvas using archival inks, stretched over a .75” or 1.5” wood frame with the print image wrapping around edge of canvas and are ready to hang using the mounted picture wire. (The 1.5” depth canvas works best for hanging without framing.) The giclee is signed on the front in silver, titled/labeled/signed on the back and comes with a signed letter of authenticity should it ever need appraisal.

CUSTOM FRAMING: Handmade floating frames created using reclaimed wood. Frames add an additional 3 inches to the overall width and height of giclee.

PROCESSING TIME & SHIPPING: Giclees are made to order and are ready to ship in 1-2 weeks within the U.S.
